And bounded to the north city of Ras Gharib, a distance of 143 km, and south of the city of Safaga, a distance of 61 km, bordering the Red Sea coast to the east, and west of the mountains directly to the Red Sea [2].
And the city of Hurghada is the fourth arrogance in terms of area after the city of Safaga and Ras Gharib, and short, with an area of ​​460.5 square km. The mass extends to the urban city on the coastal road parallel to the coast of the Red Sea in the long distance estimated at 23 km, while no more than extension of the inside than 3.6 km.
And extends the ancient city of Hurghada (Dahar) in the longitudinal bar, confined between Hilltin Geratin, one in the east of the old city and the coast, and the other in the West. Therefore, the capital city of Hurghada in the wider coastal plain varies from region to region, ranging in width from 8 to 35 km. And shows that the multiplicity of styles urban fabric of the city of Hurghada, has focused textile automatic networking in the nucleus of the city where random construction, which is characterized by buildings poor and middle-coherent most part, the evolving narrow and Winding roads and streets that varies in width from 3 to 6 meters. The fabric of networking and informal bar predominates in developed urban extensions [3].[Edit] History
Hurghada gained its name from the tree Algrdq, as is usually the place-name (and especially the desert) the names of plants or trees are spread throughout the feature.
Originated Hurghada in the early twentieth century as a gateway for the valleys of desert, inhabited by Bedouin Egyptians working in the fishing and nomadic Arabs Arashndi and Juhaina from the Arabian Peninsula and Alababdeh on the coast of the Red Sea and began to grow the discovery of oil in that region in 1913 but the boom in the early eighties eighties of the century when began to know as a magnet for scuba diving enthusiasts, and accelerated growth in the next two decades to become one of the most important tourist cities in Egypt. The city of Hurghada is divided into three main neighborhoods: neighborhood scaffold (port) south of the province, which included most of the working population to fish; inspired Dahar and that he includes building maintenance and other government agencies and the commercial market; inspired neighborhoods north, an area isolated inhabited by people who had been working mostly at the National Institute of Oceanography and Fisheries, which was created in 1930 or the youth center next to the Institute.
Population: The population doubled due to investments from 20 thousand to 90 thousand and that means more than four times the current population and dominated the local indigenous population Migelb most of the residents of Red Sea from the tone of blend between the tone of nomadic zone and the Egyptian dialect known and the habits and traditions mixed with the Egyptian, Bedouin and most of the population the capital of the Red Sea Hurghada are Aljhaana (Juhani) and Arashndah (Arashnda), some original, of which the population center of Hurghada the old neighborhood, Dahar and some of them coming from some neighboring provinces and more than about 40 thousand people other than workers and are not officially registered as children of the city of Hurghada and who work in a way directly and indirectly in the tourism industry.
Biology Home Dahar district: the old city center, and here we see the traditional Egyptian life mixed with the nature of the Egyptian Bedouin which differ radically from the others. And are also popular markets, shops, fish market, all this invites you to take time for shopping, touring, especially the time of the evening where you will notice the presence of the Egyptians more than foreigners. The ramifications of this neighborhood some neighborhoods, such as drilling sub-district inspired the Arabs.
District scaffold: The tourist part of the city, which has spread to navigate around the places where the old port. The place of renewed Vacation Obh many hotels, shops, shopping malls, clubs and restaurants that remain open to the public and tourists to after midnight.
District Biology: extends from the northern city of Hurghada, specifically the area south of El Gouna and length of 22 kilometers and a coast-to-Dahar district. One of the main advantages of this district that the number of the population by much less than in other parts of the city of Hurghada, on the other side Fbtoul coast We have many hotels that have been completed and other construction that has not been completed. And enjoy the atmosphere in this attractive eastern district is not possible now but maybe in the near future.[Edit] economic and social development
Hurghada has evolved in the past years developed rapidly due to it becoming a major tourist town on the coast of the Red Sea. The province was experiencing in the years prior to the spread of tourism than double the main services, where the city was suffering constantly from a lack of fresh water, which was being transported from the southern provinces in tankers of water, as the city was suffering from blackouts outlet, and also was suffering certain areas of isolation full and in particular the area of ​​aquaculture, due to the focus of all services in the neighborhood of Dahar and the lack of public transport linking the area in the city, was the population and children rely primarily on vehicles transporting sand to go to school or markets in the city.
And is considered by many residents of Hurghada that period that preceded the emergence of tourism, which was the population live under difficult conditions it is much better than the current period, where the transformation of the city of Hurghada to the city tourist attraction to the high prices of services and high housing prices and the spread of speculative price of land and apartments Given the steady increase in the numbers of the population and the spread of moral corruption which he links to many of the conditions of work in the field of tourism. The spread of tourism to the province to sell all land located on the shore of the sea directly and depriving the population of the city to enjoy the beaches, the city, which acquired hotels, villages, private and imposed fees are too high to allow access to the beach or prevented residents from reaching it at all. The number of public beaches in the city is very small and not commensurate with the length of the coast of the city and with the population.[Edit] Fishing

The activities diving practices, coupled with excessive unconscious by some tourists and tourism profession both damage to coral reefs, which led to the deterioration of natural habitats and habitats of marine organisms and the destruction of coral fully in some areas.
